Summary: This reveals deep secrets about adultery, possible challenges faced by people who are involved and offers some guidance

Adultery is a sexual sin which is forbidden by the God of heaven and earth. Adultery has also been used to described devotional unfaithfulness to God whom we should serve; this has to do with going to other powers, especially for money, protection and prosperity instead of depending on the holy Spirit of God. The focus here will be on sexual sin of adultery amongst married people who have or keep partners outside marriage. We are now in the era of the New Covenant of God with man. Christianity has a definition for adultery apart from physical intercourse, and this takes care of arguments as to whether the married man could be held responsible for adultery based on ancient interpretations of the term adultery. A man is accountable for adultery when he as much as "looketh on a woman to lust after her." (see the book of Matthew chapter 5 verse 28, KJV). Some people have died on the bed of adultery while some others have died on their way to or from the assignation. We need to look at adultery in the light of the manifestations of Ivan the Terrible in order to see how his rise to power, his government, his exploits and his fall closely compare with occurrences connected with adultery. Ivan the Terrible made an impact on Europe and Asia; he lived in the 16th century from 1530 to 1584.

Ivan the Terrible became a czar of Russia, an Asian country, at a rather young age of seventeen (he spent thirty-seven years in power). People who are trapped in the sin of adultery will likely have had a seed of sexual immorality sown in their early life; for instance, the seed of pornography (indulging in the picture of naked people) is a common but unnoticed example which opens the door for unclean spirits to enter a person through the eyes. You should teach your children to expose such ungodly literature to you, that is the only way you may ever get to know if they had access to pornography right under your nose. You should also buy them religious and godly literature. As a preacher said in a message titled Thunders of Revelation 8, "Lust of the eye brings about the lust of the flesh."

Adultery always tries to lay a strong foundation from the outset: Ivan called a council at the age of nineteen to strengthen the autocracy-- an absolute government by one person. Several witchcraft techniques can be used in an attempt to sustain the adulterous relationship such that you cannot just talk someone out of it in such cases. The cage of adultery will remain except focused fasting and prayer is used against it; this is because spiritual deposits can be placed at the ribs or food can be charmed in order to maintain the caging power.

Ivan won control of the Volga River and its trade links with the east in 1552. The Volga River is often called Mother Volga by the Russians and is thought of as the life blood of Russia. Adultery will not only win control of finances by channeling it to the sin partner, but will also bring his cousins-- wastage and devourer (appears as a bear in the spirit)-- which swallow funds unnecessarily.
